Dolson has had 12 months to find the guy. If that's the best he can do consider me not impressed.

I choose to believe he's tried. It's just the top 1,2,3, and 4 guys on the list all said no.

I’m not excited about either. HOWEVER, how can you make somebody take a job that they aren’t interested in. I’m sure Scott threw the kitchen sink at “big names”. If we don’t have one on the sideline next year, it’s likely not due to a lack of a plan or effort.

The reality check for many of us will be that IU basketball simply isn’t the job we think it is after years of bad basketball.

Well, to be fair, we don't know this. 

I mean, it doesn't seem that Dolson threw "the kitchen sink" at a "bunch of big names" 4 years ago before IU hired Woody. Who knows what he's actually doing this time? 

I <hope> that he's as good as everybody seems to think he is. We will find out soon.

Portal opens 1 week from today. Can they even enter until then? 

Yes, they can enter before it opens for everyone else since the coach left. They basically get a week more than everyone else to decide if they want to stay or go.

no. "Sweet 16" is winning 2 games. One of those probably being Purdue. Why is that impressive? 

I didn’t say it was, just posing a question to give people something to talk about instead of going after one another.

And some never got asked imo.

Dolson can do everything in his power, but if no one wants the job what's he supposed to do?

Seriously...we love you here, RTZ. The haters are strong today and over the past week. Stress does funny things to people. We have a strong bond of connected people, so don't go anywhere because certain people are cranky.

Trust me, I am with you on that thought. At the end of the day though, if enough of the big names said no, then there is nothing that can be done except to go after someone that fits what you are looking for.

Everyone on the message board appreciates when posters “share what they hear” in good faith and have a discussion… getting upset at people not believing him then threatening to take his ball and go home is just a hilarious way for a grown man to behave. Not troll-ish or manipulative at all. Yeesh

Disagreements are OK; name calling is not.

I once had inside information and I posted it on a message board. It was back when Mike Davis got fired. I was sitting in Panera in Bloomington and two of Davis' assistants were at the table behind me. Davis still had his job, but they were talking about needing to search for jobs. I thought that was interesting and I posted it on Peegs, but nobody believed me. 

I've learned that if your name is Isaac, more people will believe you...you should have been IsaacConnection...

Named after these guys...

Anyway,

If Devries really is the leader for Iowa then that should start to be leaked…maybe Trilly will hear things

Day 38 of the coaching search.........

Let's hope the wait is worth it. And it's not Brad or bust for me. Just give me somebody with some potential and upside that can get our fanbase excited again. 

It's like its own Lent...
